Preaching is more effective, and has more integrity when preachers understand the god behind their theology. Specifically, whether the god is a <i>universal God</i>, like the one expressed by Christ and the Christian faith, or a <i>tribal god</i>, which is sometimes dressed up to resemble Christianity but is something else entirely. Frank A. Thomas culminates his exploration of the Dangerous Sermon with this book, which leads readers through the process of identifying and understanding the gods behind theology, and their connection to preaching. The reader is equipped to discern the metaphors, symbols, and rhetorical indicators which point to the god a preacher is serving and calling others to serve.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Frank A. Thomas currently serves as Nettie Sweeney and Hugh Th. Miller Professor of Homiletics and Director of the Academy of Preaching and Celebration at Christian Theological Seminary of Indianapolis, Indiana.
